It provides functions Info, Warning, + Error, Fatal, plus formatting variants such as Infof. It + also provides V-style logging controlled by the -v and + -vmodule=file=2 flags. + + Basic examples: + + glog.Info("Prepare to repel boarders") + + glog.Fatalf("Initialization failed: %s", err) + + See the documentation for the V function for an explanation + of these examples: + + if glog.V(2) { + glog.Info("Starting transaction...") + } + + glog.V(2).Infoln("Processed", nItems, "elements") + + +The repository contains an open source version of the log package +used inside Google. The master copy of the source lives inside +Google, not here. The code in this repo is for export only and is not itself +under development. Feature requests will be ignored. + +Send bug reports to golang-nuts@googlegroups.com. |
